A saxophonist who writes too many things in the "Influences" box.
Erik Hove is an alto saxophonist who plays modern jazz and improvised music. He was born in Vancouver, B.C. and moved to Montreal to attend McGill University, taking lessons with Remi Bolduc. He then received a Canada Council grant to move to New York and study with innovative alto master Greg Osby. While in New York, he formed the experimental turntable-jazz group Soundclash, which played extensively in New York and Montreal, and also began playing frequently with indie-pop group Stars. Now based in Montreal, he continues to play with Soundclash, and also heads a trio and a quartet. He plays with many local artists, including Lubo Alexandrov's Balkan groove band Kaba Horo, dream-pop duo Memphis, Jason Sharpe's Mobius, Miles Perkin's Common Thread, Gary Schwartz, Thom Gossage, Steve Johnston, Thomas Carbou, and Alex Bellegarde, winner of the Montreal Jazz Festival's Grand Prize. Erik is the winner of L'OFF Festival de Jazz 2006 François Marcaurelle prize.
I saw Darcy Argue's band in Toronto. Man, I must have really spaced because I didn't see you! Anyway, I'll be in Montreal with my group on April 5th at Espace del'Arte, Jazz en Rafale. Please spread the word. Need to get a lot of people out for it. D
Hey dude, I just saw up the Yangtze and was pleasantly surprised to see your name in the credits. When the sax in the score turned up I knew it sounded vaguely familiar... nice stuff!
